1.2 Needs to fix Sentinel, Tanking, and XI Class-ism.

[Preypacer]

Although I do agree with much of what you say, I do think SE are to blame here mainly because the servers just can'ty cope with this fight, which leads to people using sentinel because you can't judge if you're guna get hit by one of ifrits abilities due to the animation lag.

Then that's an issue with the server tech or some other aspect, unrelated to the fight itself, that should be cleared up once the server issues are sorted.

I'm also sure - and you can quote me on this - once the lag issues are resolved and it's no longer a problem, people will continue to insist that such skills are "mandatory" anyway. It happens with every other fight in every other MMO, why would it be any different in this case.

I'm sure server lag isn't an intended strategy of Ifrit's :-p.
